New batch of ‘Hamilton’ tickets on sale as SHN officially extends blockbuster

Bay Area audiences can now be “in the room where it happens” for at least four more months.

“Hamilton,” Lin-Manuel Miranda’s blockbuster musical about the nation’s first secretary of the Treasury, is officially adding performances through Jan. 5, 2020, at the Orpheum Theatre. Tickets to the extension go on sale to the public Friday, May 3, at 10 a.m. Though the run was always open-ended, producer SHN previously offered tickets only through Sept. 8.

Prices range $95 to $403. Patrons can purchase in person at SHN’s box office at 1192 Market St., by phone at 888-746-1799 or online at hamilton.shnsf.com.

SHN will also continue to offer #Ham4Ham lottery tickets, in which 44 $10 tickets are available for each performance. To win the chance to buy up to two of the tickets, visit the “Hamilton” app or http://hamiltonmusical.com/lottery. Each performance’s lottery opens at 11 a.m. two days prior to the performance and closes at 9 a.m. one day prior to the performance. Winner notifications get sent at approximately 11 a.m. one day prior to the performance via email and/or text message. The $10 tickets must then be purchased by 4 p.m. that day, via credit card at a custom link sent with the winner notification. The tickets, which are nontransferable, may be picked up at the box office two hours before curtain.
